Abstract

Methods, apparatus and computer software are provided for authorizing an EMV transaction between a user device and a point of sale terminal, particularly, but not exclusively, in situations where a secure element is not made available for the deployment of a payment application on the user device. The payment application is instead deployed to a processing environment that is outside of any secure element on the user device. The payment application is associated with a certificate and a corresponding hash. The hash is adapted to be generated on the basis of an application expiration date parameter, which is adapted to comprise data indicative of an expiration date of day level granularity associated with the certificate. During processing of the EMV transaction, the point-of-sale terminal verifies the hash, thereby establishing the authenticity of the application expiration date, and hence the validity of the certificate.
